I get the concern, but I think with the level o color fixing you shouldn't have a problem hitting two black by fourth or fifth turn. IMO.

Yes, but he has a good mana base. He'll be able to play that with no prob.

Yeah I totally get that.
It makes sense that he stick more to the red side of the fence tho. I mean with all his other non-creature spells being red and running 4 shrines and 4 volts, I would think that to make the shrines most effective he would want a red in everything he played.
Pushing his mana to be more red biased.
To drop a 2 black spot creature might be tricky if he changes his mana that way..
Still a great card tho. :)

I agree that the mana base should be shifted more red, but as it stands, {Bloodline Keeper} is completely playable.

I have a playset of {bloodline keeper}s and it's easily one of my favorite cards. I just wanna see how this deck will run w/o him. Trying to run as few 4 drops as possible. I also want pretty much everything to have red to pump the shrine. Ofcourse if it doesn't pan out then there will be changes 

Thanks for the comments.

Also, you have {Shrines of Burning Rage}, replace {Shock} with {Galvanic Blast}
